“This religion that scorned the beauty and goodness of this world was a puzzle to me.”
“Most beautiful, good things were done by women people scorn.”
“My country is the world, and my religion is to do good.”
“There are only three great puzzles in the world, the puzzle of love, the puzzle of death, and, between each of these and part of both of them, the puzzle of God. God is the greatest puzzle of all.”
“How beautiful you are! You are more beautiful in anger than in repose. I don't ask you for your love; give me yourself and your hatred; give me yourself and that pretty rage; give me yourself and that enchanting scorn; it will be enough for me.”
“The bad scorn the good . . . and the crooked despise the straight."~Greville”
